Oil Stain Cleaning and Removal
Oil stains can present a significant challenge, particularly if they have been allowed to linger for an extended period. Prompt action is essential; the sooner you address the stain, the more likely you are to achieve a satisfactory outcome. Utilizing a commercial degreaser or specialized soap can effectively break down the oil molecules before they penetrate deeply into the surface.
The structure of many stone and cement surfaces allows oil to seep into cracks and pores, making it more difficult to remove. Oil's density and viscosity contribute to its tendency to soak into stones, exacerbating the staining issue. A thorough cleaning process is necessary, which involves applying pressure washing techniques until you see the rainbow trail cease, indicating that the excess oils have been removed.
Once the cleaning is complete, covering the area with paint can be a viable option to mask any remaining stains. However, the most effective strategy is prevention. To maintain the integrity of your cement surfaces, consider spraying a sealant every few years. This will help to create a barrier against future oil stains and other contaminants, prolonging the life and appearance of your surface.
When to use a liquid waste contaminate containment system?
By Hawaii law, any liquid waste that is not purely water must be treated appropriately before it can enter storm drains. This regulation impacts all pressure washing and cleaning activities, including car cleaning. Specifically, any wastewater generated during these processes must be redirected away from street storm drains in Hawaii.
Utilizing eco-friendly chemicals allows for the diversion of the wastewater runoff onto grass or dirt surfaces. Bleach and many dish soaps are considered eco-friendly options. However, when washing driveways or performing other cleaning tasks in urban areas, it is crucial to employ waste pumps for liquid reclamation. Even when non-chemical methods are used, any wastewater containing dirt or mold cannot legally flow into storm drains. Adhering to these guidelines ensures compliance with local environmental regulations and promotes responsible waste management practices.
How to Reclaim Contaminated Fluid
You need multiple long sandbags, a floor squeegee, a liquid waste pump, and a shovel for effective liquid waste reclamation during pressure washing. Our professional pressure washing company employs various pumps tailored to the scale of the job, including a shop vacuum, the yellow "Wayne Water Bug 1/6 hp" puddle pump, or a trash pump. In certain situations, we may require a generator to power these pumps, or we can utilize extension cords to draw electricity from our client's property.
Understanding the best practices for reclaiming liquid waste during pressure washing can be challenging, and finding information on efficient pumps for removing debris and liquid may not always be straightforward. We encourage you to reach out to us if you need assistance, as we consider this process crucial for protecting our environment.

Liquid Waste Locations
The state laws regarding liquid waste disposal are crucial to maintaining the environment, particularly in Hawaii, where specific regulations are enforced. It is mandatory to reclaim all liquid waste before it can enter street drains, regardless of whether you are using a soft wash solution or washing your vehicle in your driveway. Allowing liquid waste to flow into storm drains is illegal, as these drains connect directly to streams, rivers, harbors, and the ocean, potentially causing significant environmental harm.
In Oahu, several disposal facilities comply with these regulations, ensuring proper waste management. The following facilities are available for liquid waste disposal:
Waimanalo Gulch
Keehi Transfer Station
Ewa Refuse Convenience Center
RRR Recycling Service (Kapolei)
Adhering to these laws not only protects water quality but also supports the health of local ecosystems.
